5.0 out of 5 starsA Great Album!
A lot of bands say they are a cross between Metallica and Guns N' Roses, but these guys are the real deal. If you like classic glam/sleeze you will love this album. Yes the lyrics are full of cliches but what else would you expect from a sleaze band. The title track rocks, but the best on the album is "Sensative to the Light" which is simply superb.

2.0 out of 5 starsA Big Disappointment
I bought this album on the strength of the song I heard Dreamin' In A Casket which is a great great song. But unfortunately the rest of the tracks on the album are no-where near the standard set by this track. A big let down.

Their previous self-titled is also one of my favorite albums of all time, and this one is now up there with it. It simply ROCKS.

Any fan of 80s style metal should be very happy at the moment. With many of the 80s band getting back together (Ratt, Cinderella, Whitesnake etc), we are experiencing a revival. Hardcore Superstar brings 80s metal right up to date with the release of "Dreaming in a Casket". This album rocks from start to finish. Silver, the guitar player is amazing. The solos have a strong "George Lynch/Dokken" flavor. The vocalist, Jocke Berg, delivers a phenomenal performance. The lyrics are very entertaining! "Wake up dead in a garbage can", "...I don't wanna sleep with sophisticated ladies"...must make you smile! The DVD is a "behind the scenes" look at how the album was recorded. This is my favorite album at the moment...by a long way! Rock on!
